It looks like there's a head tube badge on the front, what does it say ? Some better pics (close ups) would be helpful.

It just says:

Montgomery Wards
Hawthorne

That bicycle, then, is a "Hawthorne" sold by Montgomery Wards department stores in the (late?) 1960's. Hawthorne was the brand name of bicycles at these stores.

It appears to be a mid 60's(65-66) Columbia built bike badge for MW. Kenny.
